Contest 210: Fair Play
I went to a small town fair a few weeks ago - a rather dismal event in a damp field. Of course, this sort of thing always looks a lot better at night, when the lights have a chance to ring out. Think we can perk up this somewhat lacklustre affair? High res is here.

Brewell, ever read the book Something Wicked this Way Comes, by Ray Bradbury? It might titillate your Midway nightmares a bit... Clowns and Midways are even worse!
Anna, very clever and witty... |

Re: Contest 210: Fair Play
A small fair is great for kids. I'm not sure about the size and placement of the girl - anyone have advice?  |

Re: Contest 210: Fair Play
Ellen, I think your illuminations are excellent. As to the child, it’s my opinion hip height; just below the elbow would be about right. The lighting would surly be reflected on the grass, as shown by Ben and GKB or Nick. ( I’m prepared to be shot down.) Anna, That is just great, highly entertaining and most amusing. |

Re: Contest 210: Fair Play
Hi James, I think you're right. I took on board Steve's comments when we did the Art Gallery Challenge and looked for the eye level horizon in this image. I may be wrong, but I think the level is about where the ducks appear in the stall board. I also think that allowance should be made for the child's height. The lighting in this image is crucial and is very difficult to achieve, but the stalls would certainly throw some light on the grass. Perhaps we'll face the firing squad together! Nick |

Excellent Anna. It reminded me that I had intended to drop the moon into my effort.....but I forgot all about it until I saw yours. Glad you liked the 'Irish builders' pic. Gordon |

Yes I know the story! It may not be the cause of my unease, but it is a contributor. _________________ "Do what you can to make the world more colorful" - Hugh Sacher-Asian |

Re: Contest 210: Fair Play
I hope another try is OK. Thanks James and Nick! I left out the light in the grass layer whilst dithering about the size of the girl. I think this looks right but...  |
